- From comic book adaptations to award-winning documentaries, Filipino-American composer Nathan Matthew David has scored some of the most exciting projects of the last few years. His dark synth and guitar driven work was recently heard on the Russo Brothers' adaptation of the acclaimed comic 'Deadly Class'. And his emotional and poignant music featured in the powerful and Peabody Award-winning docu-series 'Surviving R. Kelly'. For the latter, he also took home an ASCAP 2020 Screen Award.
Born to Filipinx immigrants, his family taught him music at a young age. His curiosity would lead him to play in bands and to study film scoring at USC's prestigious Scoring For Motion Pictures and Television program. He would go on to be mentored by and collaborate with Oscar-winning composer Ludwig Goransson (Black Panther) and Theodore Shapiro (Bombshell). With the former, he co-composed the A24 film starring Chance The Rapper, 'SLICE'.
He is currently writing an album featuring indigenous Filipinx instruments, chamber ensemble and electronics that releases later in 2020.
Other work has included composing the music for the James Cameron produced 'Gamechangers' (Netflix) and the TBS hit comedy, 'Angie Tribeca' from Steve and Nancy Carrell.
